Description	English: Original image caption: The Lesser Antilles island chain is centered in this true-color Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) image from September 20, 2002. From bottom to top through the center are Grenada, St. Vincent (with Barbados to its east), St. Lucia, Fort-de-France, Dominica, Guadeloupe, Montserrat (slightly west of center line), Antigua, and Barbuda. The Lesser Antilles are part of a chain of islands that runs between the tip of Florida and northern South America in the Caribbean Sea. On Montserrat, the thermal signature (marked in red) could be from the Soufriere Hills Volcano. Deutsch: Echtfarben-Aufnahme der östlichen Inselkette der Kleinen Antillen, aufgenommen am 20. September 2002 vom Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) des Satelliten Terra. Von unten nach oben sind das Grenada, St. Vincent (mit Barbados rechts daneben), St. Lucia, Martinique, Dominica, Guadeloupe, Montserrat (die kleine, etwas nach links abgesetzte Insel), Antigua und Barbuda. Die Kleinen Antillen sind Teil einer Inselkette, die sich vom Golf von Mexiko in einem weiten Bogen bis an den nordwestlichen Schelf Südamerikas zieht. Die thermische Signatur auf Montserrat (rot markiert) könnte vom Vulkan Soufrière Hills stammen.
